I'll get the disappointing things out of the way first:

1. I did grow up in Waco, Texas, but I have yet to own a firearm or join a cult. (I know, I know, no wonder they kicked me out.)

 

2. I am a white girl with curly hair, but despite rampant rumors to the contrary, I am not Jewish, nor am I Chelsea Clinton.

 

What I am is an illustrator who has just finished her MFA at the School of Visual Arts in New York City and now has to rejoin the real world (ack).

 

In addition to my current illustration projects I'm lucky enough to work with several kick-ass non-profit organizations in online organizing and fundraising.

 

Today I live in Brooklyn, dodge hipsters and babies on the way to the subway, work, draw, read, and generally play way too much Rockband.
